Just me trying to be honest with God.

“Courage is not simply one of the virtues, but the form of every virtue at the testing point.” C.S. Lewis

“And all these, though commended through their faith, did not receive what was promised...that apart from us they should not be made perfect. ” Heb.11 ESV

Love is the courage to seek the good even of your enemies. Joy is the courage to endue even a cross to do what pleases God. Peace is the courage to rest in His promises even when everything is at unrest around you. Patience is the courage to wait for God to do what He has promised even though you may never see it in this life. Every virtue expresses the measure of its maturity when its courage is put to the test. 3/12/2011 Conversations Within ts (Oak Mountain, AL)
